📌 scholar friends, I do transcription!

📢 Interviews, videos, subtitles all fair game. I've done this for 3 years with all kinds of sources
📢 As short as 48h turnaround time
📢 USD20 per audio hour but let's talk!

I keep apologising for the fluff in this project...

Reminder: scholar.social is not the place to defend sexist or racist jokes

The "rich people reinventing basic public services" genre gets less funny when you realize they mean privately-run versions that can exclude undesirables.

Basically because essays 🙅

A gentle undirected note that hashtags here don't work in the same way as on Twitter. They're purely for searching, not for metrics.

This may not be everyone's view, but Mastodon (to me, at least) shouldn't be about accumulating metrics - it can be so much more: it can be about building community.
